About the Item

A unique and very handsome French 19th century Louis XVI st. mahogany, brass, ormolu, leather, and Vert Maurin marble Cartonnier chest. The six drawer chest is raised by elegant square tapered legs with most decorative ormolu sabots, top caps, and beautiful fitted fluted plaques. The straight apron displays a recessed design framed within a mottled brass band with block reserves above each foot. Impressive column like designs lead up each side also displaying fitted fluted plaques centering the six drawers. Each drawer retains its superb original fitted leather front with a burl-like design, foliate gold tooled border, and richly chased foliate ormolu pulls. The sides showcase the beautiful warm Mahogany wood grain also framed within a finely mottled wrap around brass fillet. Above is the original Vert Maurin marble top fitted within an elegant pierced ormolu gallery. All original gilt throughout.
